Made of Peruvian quartzite from the Sacred Valley, the carving in this tobacco pipe refers to the Inca mythological trinity of the puma, the condor and the snake. Here, the snake represents our innter self and the ability to transform through reflection and self-awareness. The naturally white stone is weighty and cool to the touch.

This pipe is functional and is ready for use or display. Please note, this is a handmade piece with subtle variations in the stone color and carving.
